Strings Attached: How Harvard’s Wealthiest Alumni Are Reshaping University Giving
Harvard for many years has been sincerely proud of the record of her graduates. Other colleges have rejoiced with Harvard in the splendid achievements of her sons. A very pleasing tribute appears in a test of social intelligence given yesterday to students in George Washington University. Realizing that Harvard men hold high positions and are extremely versatile, Professor Moss, the originator of the examination, asks his students to underline the correct answer to certain important questions.
No longer may a Harvard man be accused of indifference--he is most likely unusually fond of children, and his fondness has doubtlessly been inspired by observing the Cambridge Police. Boston society has, of course, contributed to make the Harvard man a drunkard--a position which requires judgment and no small capacity for uniting various raw materials. Harvard's sense of proportion and blance is amply illustrated by Professor Moss' assumption that the Harvard graduate who becomes a caretaker is probably a moron.
On the whole Harvard may congratulate herself that her reputation in the South at least is unimpaired. Harvard leads in morons, caretaking, drinking, irresponsibility, and love of children. There is no room for Yale or Princeton.
